If you’ve invested in your smile and had veneers fitted, there are a few easy things you can do to keep your new smile looking great well into the future. 💙
Here are some dentists’ tips for looking after your veneers:
🦷 Brush and floss twice a day because veneers are just as susceptible to plaque and bacteria build up as natural teeth.
🍭 Even though they are very durable, veneers can chip and break so be careful with particularly hard foods like raw carrots and hard lollies.
🍹 Drinking alcohol regularly can cause the bonding cement under your veneers to weaken, which can lead to corrosion, staining and damage. Therefore, dentists recommend limiting alcohol.
📩 Dentists can help remove plaque from the teeth which a toothbrush cannot, and professional cleaning can help polish and preserve the colour of your veneers over time.
